ChonkyTonks Custom Picks

Chonky: What style of handle would you call this one? It looks awesome with the slight curve, looks very comfortable to use. I just need to know what to mention in the comment box for handle style. Thanks

Chris, just reference the Ed and Jay picks. We can go from there once I begin the design process. The handle for Jay's pick is really comfortable/functional.

so when we order or make a request, do we prepay?

No, payment occurs at the time of completion and agreement that the pick(s) meet your expectations.

Chonks, I have to say you are really maturing as a craftsman, the progress in your works is apparent. You've also managed to carve out a unique niche in pick design and construction. Kudos!

I think I will order one of your picks but am unsure of the process. I too like the "Ed and Jay picks", do I just specify that I would like something like those and you come up with something similar? Are each of your sets unique by design? I don't want to ruin the uniqueness of Ed's picks by asking you to make something that is exactly the same. Please advise.

Piotr,

First off, thank you for the kind words. I am constantly trying to hone my skills in this arena and am glad that the picks I have created were not a mere fluke or surreptitious savantry.

Do not worry about ruining any uniqueness. Every pick I make (and will make) is a unique design. I have only made templates of handles for transposition of the design onto the pick material. I have yet to use the same design twice. If you order, just specify that you want a design similar to Ed's set.

I'm excited to eventually get my picks and see how they turn out.

Some really amazing results with these wooden handles, you can really tell how far you've come in terms of style and craftsmanship. Especially this last set here, effing amazing work man, keep it up!

Thanks, LSA. Both handles are really comfortable. The second is a good fit. I like the ergonomics and flow of the design. Do you have a pic of the ratyoke design? I would not mind seeing that.
